Anti-cingulin like 1 antibodies are used for the immunodetection of the protein encoded by the CGNL1 gene. In humans, the canonical protein has a reported length of 1302 amino acid residues and a mass of 149.1 kDa. Its subcellular localization is in the cell junctions. Alternative splicing is reported to yield 2 different isoforms for this protein. A member of the Cingulin protein family, it is suspected to be involved in anchoring the apical junctional complex, especially tight junctions, to actin-based cytoskeletons. The gene encoding this protein is implicated in Aromatase excess syndrome. Other names for this target antigen include junction-associated coiled-coil protein, paracingulin, and cingulin-like protein 1. Gene orthologs have been identified in the mouse, rat, bovine, frog, zebrafish, chimpanzee and chicken species. Some cingulin like 1 antibodies may have been used in research and have associated citations. Western Blot is a widely used application for these antibodies. In addition, ELISA is also a common application.
